Top 5: Songs About Vampires
Happy Halloween!!!!
Have you ever stopped to think about how many artists have written about vampires over the years? I’m sure there’s a case to be made for other supernatural creatures, but vampires are my favorite so I’m gonna feature them.
Note: This list is in no particular order and doesn’t even begin to skim the surface of its subject matter.
1. Die Krupps: “The Vampire Strikes Back”
Fun fact – This track was listed as a Rammstein song entitled “Vampire” years ago, and many people still believe it’s them.
2. Type O Negative: “Suspended In Dusk”
3. Atreyu: “The Crimson”
How could I not include Atreyu? They did an entire album centered around vampires!
4. David Draiman: “Forsaken”
This may be my favorite on the list. David Draiman’s voice is so ridiculously sexy, and he fits the whole eerie vampy vibe very well.
5. Blutengel: “Vampire”

Strvngers — “Leder Dame”
Weekly Focus: Songs About Halloween, Day Four
Happy Halloween!!!!!
Lambert, Hendricks, & Ross — “Halloween Spooks,” from the album Elvira Presents: Haunted Hits (1988).
I was first introduced to this song when my best friends and I watched The Houses October Built. The earliest mention of it that I could find was from the Elvira Presents collection in 1988.
